PATIENT - REPORTED OUTCOME MEASUREMENTS (PROMs)

A Patient-Reported Outcome Measures (PROM) survey is an essential tool in healthcare, specifically designed to capture patients’ personal perspectives on their health status, quality of life, and satisfaction with medical treatments. This survey plays a crucial role in evaluating clinical outcomes, as it reflects how patients feel about their symptoms, function, and overall well-being after specific procedures, such as total knee replacement or total hip replacement. By focusing on patient evaluation and satisfaction, PROM surveys help healthcare providers assess recovery after surgery and monitor the success of treatments.

These surveys not only support patient-centred care but also contribute to improving clinical quality and patient safety goals. As a part of quality healthcare services, PROM feedback allows healthcare professionals to make informed decisions about treatment strategies and enhance future care. By integrating PROM surveys into healthcare, hospitals can ensure a higher standard of clinical outcomes and continually work toward improving patient satisfaction and overall recovery experiences.
